Lantern slide. Showing the birth house of the Temple of Isis on the Island of Philae. This photograph was taken by Sgt. Johnson of the 436 Welsh Field Company c. 1917. It formed part of a lecture which he gave. The notes from his lecture read 'The Temple of Hathor stands immediately to the east of the second Pylon. It consists of a hall and a pronaos, the other chambers being now destroyed. The hall had six pillars on either side which are now only standing in part.' The slide shows the birth house with Hathor headed columns on the right and behind that, on the left of the picture, the First Pylon. This is a similar view to negative EC1703 and EC1716.
Watercolour of 'Marino', the house built for Edward King and his wife, Jane Morris in 1784 by William Jarnegan (1750/1-1836). The original structure the Abbey Building at Swansea University is based on.
Mrs. Mary Dulcibella Thomas (née Eden) (1834 – 1909) with her second daughter Miss Dulcibel Thomas (1872-1951) outside the drawing room window at Glanmor House, Sketty, Swansea. (The Edens were trusted managers at Vivian and Sons Ltd. The site of Glanmor House is now Long Oaks Court near Myrtle Grove and Glanmor Park Road.) Mrs. Thomas was the second wife of Illtid Thomas (1812 – 89) and Isabel, their eldest daughter, was the first of their children to get married. Frank got on well with his sister-in-law Dulcie and she was a welcome guest on adventurous continental motoring trips.
